Coral is such an inviting, refreshing color that has a mysterious edge. It's not quite pink, neither is it orange, but it's somewhere in between. It can be very bold, but also some shades are soft and feminine. One thing you do know is that this color can be seemingly breathtaking and it’s everything your home needs to create interest without living with an in-your-face hue.
Coral comes with an extra benefit.The rosiness of this color is very flattering to all skin tones and will add a youthful glow to your complexion. I don't know about the rest of you but I can use the help!!

Coral continues to make it’s presence known in every category of interior decor this season.Can you now picture it in your home? Well if you are still unable, take a look at these images and you may be inspired!!
